Clips from EWTN's 'Real Life Catholic'
Last year several members from our Diocese, including myself and my good friend Joshua Kapika, had the chance to be on EWTN's 'Real Life Catholic' with Chris Stefanick. It was an honor to be able to represent the local church and to also share our Hawaiian culture with the rest of the Catholic world.

Embracing Evangelization in the Catholic Schools
Seeing God's outpouring of grace on St Michael School this year has been a huge blessing to me. Seeing these young students respond to God's call inspires me to be a better person, teacher, and Catholic. I want to respond to God's grace with the same enthusiasm as they do!

The missile that never came!
Last week Hawaii made international news for the false missile alert that was accidentally sent out via text by the Hawaii Civil Defense. It was quite a scary sequence of events! I was asked by the Catholic News Agency as well as Relevant Radio out of New York to do an interview explaining how my family reacted to the missile scare. Both the article by CNA and the radio interview are linked below

Cooking 120 Turkeys at One Time!
Here in Hawaii we have a tradition of cooking our Thanksgiving turkeys in an old traditional hawaiian imu (underground oven) Below is a video of my family and I cooking 120 turkeys all at once a few Thanksgivings ago. We will be doing it again this year and every year. Its a wonderful cultural tradition to be able to hand down to our children
Thanksgiving Memories (Family Prayer 2014)
I found this video today as I went through some old family files. Its a video of our opening family prayer at Thanksgiving back in 2014. It was a very special Thanksgiving. Captured in the video are both my Papa Andy (Tutu Kane) and my Uncle Kui. They have both passed away in the last several years and this particular Thanksgiving was the last one that they were both there with us. Its so awesome to have this special prayer captured on video and to see them both there. Please pray for the repose of their souls. I am grateful for the tremendous influence they both had on my life. Love you Papa and Uncle. Miss you!
